I think it's pretty well worth it for the fix they did. Especially it's satisfactory enough for you to drive it.

The biggest problem I see...

THOSE OEM RIMS LOOKS REALLY SUNKEN IN!!! NEED NEW RIMS... NOWWW!!

That's a bit overpriced... Must be paying for the name.

I had great experience with Ichiba's spacers. I believe it was about under $300 for 4 set of 25mm with built in studs. Many others on the forums have used the same spacers and have had no problems. Stop looking at project kics or whatever!

very nice job with the detailed follow up with the bodyshop... your car looked very good in person - a BIG improvement over the first pics that you posted.

you may want to post a WTB thread fo some wheel spacers.

Congrats man, glad it worked out for you in the end

I still wave my two middle fingers in the air whenever I pass by Velocity though, never stepping into their shop....but to each their own I guess.
